TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU: Sleepwalking Me Ordered $200 Worth of plastic Pudgy Penguins

TL;DR: Sleepwalking me bought over $200 worth of plastic penguins, and now I have 20 boxes of pudgy penguin toys coming to invade 🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧

So, I’ve been sleepwalking for years. Sometimes it’s harmless. Soemtimes I eat something I wanted to enjoy in the morning. But my biggest problem is sleep-shopping. I’ve had my share of incidents in the past (I still have ugly socks somewhere), but I thought I had it under control. Maybe I outgrew it you know? I thought maybe this was over.

Woke up yesterday to find a medium-sized box on my porch. Opened it up and its A box full of plastic pudgy penguin toys. figured it might’ve been a weird mistake I was planning to see if maybe I had stuff sent to the wrong address. maybe a friend trolling me.

This morning there’s another box of penguins. Went to check my Ebay account and shows 20+ separate orders for these chubby little penguin figures from different sellers. TWENTY BOXES. The main issue is I bought this on a credit card.

So now there's a colony of penguins en route to my house, and have no idea what to do with them. Build some kind of plastic penguin shrine? Start a penguin army and take over my neighborhood? RIP rent money, I needed to buy fkn penguins. Edit FUCK! I spent $250 on this~!~!

Edit: I'm so confused how this charged my CC in the first place. Ebay was set to use Debit card as primary payment

Edit: some of these sellers are insane. "shipping fee" that almost equals the price of the item sold.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
